Features of the Tori Katana
The Katana Tori 鳥 captures the very essence of Japanese tradition, combining refined aesthetics with centuries-old craftsmanship. Designed for martial arts enthusiasts and collectors alike, this Katana reflects both power and harmony, crafted with high-quality materials and exceptional finishes that make it a standout piece.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from T10 steel, the Katana Tori blade is renowned for its exceptional durability and ability to maintain a razor-sharp edge, thanks to its high carbon content. The mirror-polished finish, applied by a master swordsmith, enhances the beauty of the undulating hamon, a mark of the differential tempering process. This blade is a harmonious blend of precision and elegance, making it the ideal choice for those seeking both performance and beauty.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The copper tsuba, intricately carved and accented with gold and silver details, is a tribute to nature, featuring delicate floral motifs. Beyond its protective function, the copper ensures long-lasting durability due to its corrosion resistance, while the floral engravings symbolise the harmony between humanity and nature—a core principle of samurai philosophy.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The saya, made from lacquered black wood, is adorned with a tree branch design, representing the connection between man and the natural world. This scabbard provides both strength and elegance, offering optimal protection for the blade. The smooth lacquer finish not only enhances the saya’s resistance to the elements but also adds a sophisticated visual appeal.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in authentic white shagreen, the tsuka offers a secure and comfortable grip. The unique texture of the shagreen is not only visually striking but also ensures optimal traction during use. The finely crafted copper menuki and bamboo mekugi guarantee the structural integrity of the sword while adding refined details that elevate the overall aesthetic.
The Katana Tori 鳥 is more than just a weapon; it is a true work of art, showcasing the rich legacy of the samurai. With its T10 steel blade, finely sculpted floral details, and authentic shagreen-wrapped handle, this Katana perfectly blends tradition with modernity.
